Thanks, that's a big help.  It's "M" for now, w/ a note that future
revisions are expected.

Sorry, I should have been more precise.  The council rejected both

spb is slowly assembling), and then requiring in-tree package
managers to implement that API.  Or at least that was my understanding
of that meeting.
